The lottery was actually invented in the streets and was classified as "illegal gambling", but then the government saw this as a "cash cow" and created the lottery, scratch off tickets, mega millions, etc..etc.. The lottery was invented in the ghettos of America (mostly new york) and then the government stole it and made "street numbers" illegal.

God created the lottery to be just an fair in the division of land property goods or money! the lottery goes back to the dawn of man!
